Best Range for a USB Adapter?

So far, I found the Hawking Technology Model HWU54D to be the best. I saw it
reviewed on CNET, I believe, and they said it was the most powerful because
of its built-in 6dbi antenna construction. You can also config it to be an
AP.

The only draw back is that its antenna is unidirectional, which some people
may not like.

I also had a DLINK DWL-120e which uses that Start Trek communicator design.
Even though its only 802.11b, it had great range. The newer DWL-G120 adapter
is 802.11g, but its got mediocre range.


Any others with great range?
